In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 117 Payne's Attention

"No." Chiya refused without hesitation, and said seriously, "Not only that, even if you become Hokage in the future, for your sake and for our daughter's sake, you must not tell anyone that you know me, not even Jiraiya."

"The ninja world is a very complex place, and what I've encountered is far more than you know."

"If our relationship is exposed, many people will die."

"Is this the end for us?" Even the strongest woman has her weaknesses. Hearing this, Tsunade's eyes welled up with tears.

"Don't worry, everything will be over in less than five years. And during that time, I will visit you and your daughter in Konoha often." Chiya gently stroked Tsunade's face and said softly.

Tsunade nodded slightly and nestled close to Chiya's embrace.

At this moment, Tsunade was nowhere to be seen as the carefree and strong woman she used to be.

She's more like a wife who worries about her husband.

Extremely weak and frail.

This made Qianye sigh in admiration at the greatness of love.

However, after spending so much effort, I finally managed to deal with the most troublesome woman in Naruto.

The next morning, Chiya bid a reluctant farewell to Tsunade and her daughter amidst their tearful gazes.

Before leaving, he made a point of leaving them a large sum of money.

Of course, Chiya was not handed over directly to Tsunade.

Instead, let it be stored silently.

The only arrangement was for Shizune to give Tsunade a sum of money every so often, on a weekly basis.

Otherwise, given these women's extravagant spending habits, they would have gambled everything away in just a few days.

Of course, as long as Tsunade doesn't raise the stakes, this amount of money is enough for her to build.

Back at the hotel where Yekura was staying, the two met again after more than a week.

As Chiya put on her Akatsuki robe, she asked Yecang, "How have you been lately? Have you been having fun?"

"Hmm, not bad. How about Lord Chiya? How's your ninjutsu training going?" Because of the Kyoka Suigetsu, even though the two were in an ancient town, Yekura didn't know that Chiya had been spending the last few days with Tsunade.

"It went fairly smoothly." Recalling the taste of Tsunade, Chiya licked her lips with lingering relish.

That tigress is absolutely terrifying.

It's a bit hard on the back.

"Shall we set off for Konoha now?" Yekura walked to Chiya's side and thoughtfully smoothed out the wrinkles in his collar.

"Of course," Qianye smiled.

"So what's your plan? Kakashi, the Copy Ninja of Konoha, has already seen our attire. If we rush in, we might be surrounded and attacked by Konoha ninjas," Yekura said hesitantly.

Just then, a pull suddenly appeared from their rings. Qianye and Yecang exchanged a glance, sat on the bed, and entered their illusionary state.

In the dark, sealed cave, a Zen lamp emitted a faint light, and the illusory figures of the eleven official members of the Akatsuki organization appeared one after another.

"We've been gathering quite frequently lately," Hidan complained first, clearly dissatisfied.

"Shut up, Hidan, or I'll kill you." Kakuzu's emerald green eyes twitched as he glared at Hidan and snapped.

"I told you, why don't you come and try killing me?" Hidan said nonchalantly, scoffing.

Just then, Payne's avatar appeared. Ignoring the usual chatter of the immortal duo, he turned to Qianye and asked, "How's things going on your end?"

"Things went relatively smoothly. That kid Rasa has been taken care of and is now planning to head to Konoha." Chiya shrugged slightly.

Upon hearing this, Deidara couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of Brother Chiya, killing the Kazekage of one of the Five Great Nations so easily is truly an art. Hmm, if I have the chance in the future, I must try to kill a Kazekage like you and Brother Sasori."

"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future." Qianye smiled. "I gave the human skin to Orochimaru to impersonate the Fourth Kazekage and assassinate the Third Kazekage. I kept the body."

At this point, Qianye turned to look at Sasori, "Sasori, don't you like collecting the corpses of powerful ninjas to make puppets? The corpses of ninjas with Magnet Release bloodline limit are not common. I'll take them to you later. You just need to make more toy puppets for my daughter."

"I understand," Scorpion replied coldly, without any joy or sorrow.

"So, what are your plans for infiltrating Konoha this time?" Pain continued to ask.

Qianye said, "That's exactly what I'm going to say next. I plan to disguise myself and sneak into Konoha. Otherwise, leader, given our Akatsuki's conspicuous and handsome red cloud black robes, I'm afraid that as soon as I enter Konoha, I'll be surrounded by a group of Konoha ninjas."

"This is an exception because it involves the First Hokage. I'm allowing you to remove your Akatsuki uniforms and proceed with the operation," Pain said. "However, the First Hokage's resurrection through the Impure World Reincarnation poses an immense threat to our organization. If he were to return to his prime, it would severely impact our future plans."

"So, Chiya, this time your mission, in addition to gathering information about Konoha's Jinchuriki, is also to ensure that the First Hokage's Edo Tensei is completely dead, just like when you cut off Danzo's left arm, preventing him from regenerating it."

"In addition, Orochimaru, who controls the Impure World Reincarnation technique, is also a huge threat. Although I know that disgusting guy is difficult to kill, we should not let him go if we have the chance."

"No problem. I'm an expert at backstabbing people. I'll play it by ear." Qianye smiled lightly, thinking to himself, "It seems that Obito is getting restless after hearing that the First Hokage has been resurrected using Edo Tensei."

"So, what kind of help do you need from the organization for this trip?" Payne asked.

Chiya said solemnly, "This Chunin Exam is jointly organized by Konoha and Sunagakure, and many small and medium-sized ninja villages have also been invited, including Amegakure, which is controlled by its leader."

"Orochimaru is planning to use the method of skinning people to disguise himself as a ninja from Kusakura and infiltrate Konoha ahead of time."

"I don't want to be like Orochimaru, wearing a dead man's skin on my body. In order to better monitor Orochimaru, I hope the organization can arrange for me to be a genin from Amegakure. Because of Hanzo, most Amegakure ninjas still wear their heads and faces covered. I think as long as I disguise myself, I won't be recognized."

(P.S.: Transformation techniques aren't used here because ordinary transformation techniques are easily detected. With the "Mirror Flower Water Moon" technique, the protagonist wouldn't have the opportunity to use it on everyone in Konoha.)

Pain thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but there's one thing: you must guarantee that the information that Akatsuki originated from Amegakure will never be leaked."

"You can rest assured about this leader. I will not act as a ninja from Amegakure," Chiya said with a light laugh.
